There are other tumors such as follicular lymphoma where such vaccines have a better chance of working, because the immune system is less impaired. If they can be shown to be beneficial there, then CLL might be worth considering, but only if we can figure out why the immune system is impaired in CLL.Terry Hamblinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06346629921055055879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19490962.post-2873381963952531672007-09-30T23:14:00.000+01:002007-09-30T23:14:00.000+01:00Congratulations indeed!

And what would be a good paper to read on Croce's work that is really new to me?

Most of the folks attending, obviously, you've never heard of, but the usual suspects are probably there, presenting papers and ruminating on findings. <BR/><BR/>It will be nice to have the highlights given to us. <BR/><BR/>I do remember being quite deflated when a top CLL researcher told me point blank that vaccines would never, ever work against CLL because the patient's immune system was so terribly compromised. <BR/><BR/>Perhaps one day I will share his name with you all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
